After initially posting that the nondenominated (49¢) Northern Cardinal forever stamped envelope was issued this year on Jan. 8, the USPS Postal Service now identifies the issue date as Nov. 3, 2016.

The Jan. 8 date first appeared at the end of January on the USPS stamp retail site, but was revised soon after.

Technical details for the envelope, which is sold only in a pack of 12 with matching closure stickers for $9.95, were published in the Feb. 16 Postal Bulletin, a Postal Service publication that appears every other Thursday.

Information about the envelope was published in the same Feb. 16 Postal Bulletin, also without first-day cancel ordering options.

The Postal Service does offer its own first-day cover for the envelope, at $7.09, as item 232716. The $6.65 envelope is sold by the Postal Service in a pack of five as item 232705.

The Liliuokalani Gardens stamped envelope is printed by the independent folding carton company Bell Inc., of Sioux Falls, S.D.

Both envelopes repeat stamp designs. The Northern Cardinal forever stamp was issued Aug. 4, 2016, as part of a set of four Songbirds in Snow stamps (Scott 5128). The $6.65 Liliuokalani Gardens Priority Mail stamp was issued Jan. 22, the same day as the envelope.
